(base1 + base2)/2 = midsegment
A trapezoid midsegment is parallel to the set of parallel lines in a trapezoid and is equal to the average of the lengths of the bases
False because the area of a trapezoid is: 0.5*(sum of its parallel sides)*height
On method would be to find the midpoint of the line segment and then to find the mid points of each of the halves.
The mid-point
The mid-point
Median of a trapezoid is a line segment found on the midpoint of the legs of a trapezoid. It is also known as mid-line or mid-segment. Its basic formula is AB + CD divided by 2.
Look for the two sides which are parallel. You will find the mid segment halfway between the two sides.
You take the arithmetic mean (average) of the parallel sides.
Mid line segment.
mid-segment
No, it is not.
It will be 19 units.
A trapezoid midsegment is parallel to the set of parallel lines in a trapezoid and is equal to the average of the lengths of the bases
False.
To find the midpoint of a trapezoid, first identify the two parallel bases. Measure the lengths of both bases and calculate their midpoints by averaging the coordinates of their endpoints. The midpoint of the trapezoid can then be determined by drawing a line segment connecting these two midpoints, which will be parallel to the bases and represent the trapezoid's midsegment. This midsegment can also be used to find the height or other geometric properties of the trapezoid.
False because the area of a trapezoid is: 0.5*(sum of its parallel sides)*height
To find its mid point. Which then raises the question why find its midpoint and I cannot answer that.
